Custom .NET
Flow has support for using third party .net assemblies. All public static methods with primitive types as arguments can be executed from a machine step in any type of workflows.
Follow these steps to setup a custom connector:
Run NovaCura.Flow.Connector.Wrapper.exe from your command line console.
It is located in Flow Designer program folder.
First argument is output connector dll name, example: CustomConnector.dll
Second argument is input assembly path.
If input assembly has dependencies to other assemblies those can be entered as arguments. For example: NovaCura.Flow.Connector.Wrapper.exe CustomConnector.dll CustomAssembly.dll CustomUtil.dll
Copy output dll to the current studio version (%appdata%\{{version}}) and to bin/CustomConnectors* folder located in Server installation folder.
Add a connector element to CustomConnectors.xml located in bin/CustomConnectors folder in Server installation folder.
Start Flow Designer and verify that a new connector type with the previous specified display name exists in Connectors page under Environments when adding a new connector.
Add the new connector and enter a suitable name.
The new connector should now exist in all machine step configurations.
